Chu Qiao felt the gaze of the two brothers. Children loved to eat snacks, but Gu Ye was at his most down and out now. After switching jobs, he was assigned to the Machine Tool Factory, which was the same unit as Gu Jianshe. However, Gu Jianshe was the deputy secretary and was paid the salary of a cadre. But Gu Ye was only the head of the security section. His rank was lower than Gu Jianshe’s, so his salary was naturally lower.
In addition, his two children often went to the hospital, so he could not afford to spend a lot. Moreover, Gu Ye had been spending money extravagantly since he was young, so he did not know how to be diligent and frugal. Otherwise, with Gu Ye’s temper, as long as he had money in his pocket, he would definitely not order just a pot of tea.
The snacks she ordered were all delivered, and the table was full. She only took a piece of yam cake to eat, and the rest was not eaten. The taste was not very good, and it was not as good as the ones she made herself.
In her previous life, although she did not achieve anything, being a stay-at-home mother was not for nothing. She had good cooking skills, and western and Chinese desserts were all within her grasp. Gu Jianshe often gave her desserts as gifts to save money and face.
Moreover, she had also made good medicinal cuisine, and they were recipes passed down from the Chu family. The Chu family was a family of traditional Chinese medicine, and they passed down many recipes. However, Chu Yuanzhi was the son of a concubine, and his status was not high, so he only passed down a few medicinal cuisine recipes to her. Chu Yuanzhi did not care about it at all, and He Jihong did not care about it either. In her previous life, it had already been in Chu Qiao’s hands.
She had nothing to do, so she studied this recipe. There were a total of 100 medicinal cuisines, and she had studied them thoroughly. She had also created quite a number of new ones. She often made them for Gu Jianshe and the other two to eat, so that these three animals would become white and fat.
“Why aren’t you eating snacks?” Gu Jianshe’s voice interrupted Chu Qiao’s memories. She looked at the snacks with disdain and said unhappily, “The taste is not right. I can’t eat it.”
Gu Jianshe was so angry that he wanted to curse. Why did she order so much when it wasn’t good? Wasn’t she wasting his money?
Gu Jianshe took a rose crisp candy to eat. It was so sweet that he got sick of it immediately. He barely ate one. He could only look at the table of money and feel his heart ache. He didn’t like sweets. Chu Qiao knew his habits, so she ordered these on purpose.
After drinking a large mouthful of tea, Gu Jianshe brought up the serious matter. “Aunt He told you about my situation, right? My name is Gu Jianshe. I’m 28 years old, Deputy Secretary of Xingda Machine Tool Factory. I have two sons. The oldest is eight years old, and the youngest is eight months old…”
“Your youngest son is only eight months old? What about his mother? Is she dead or divorced?” Chu Qiao interrupted Gu Jianshe, who was talking non-stop.
Gu Jianshe felt stifled in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said, “She died during childbirth eight months ago. Comrade Chu Qiao, my situation is like this. Because I’m busy with work, I can’t take care of my family and my two children…”
“You mean you want to find a woman to take care of your two sons? Then why don’t you find a nanny?”
Chu Qiao interrupted again, not even looking at the man’s black face. “Your wife just died, and she gave birth to your child. No matter what, you have to be filial for at least three years, right? It’s only been eight months, and you’re already looking for a partner. Have you ever considered the feelings of your child? Comrade Gu Jianshe, you’re too cruel to your child!”
What she said was also the actual situation. In her previous life, after she married Gu Jianshe, the younger one didn’t know anything and was easy to deal with. However, the older one treated her as an enemy and always thought of ways to go against her. Gu Jianshe didn’t care about family matters. However, if his son complained to him, he would definitely help his son and scold her for not fulfilling her responsibilities.
In her previous life, she endured for a full three years before the two children accepted her. However, they only called her Aunt Chu. She thought that after twenty years of hard work, she would always be able to move the two brothers. Hmph, reality proved that… the son of an animal was still an animal. She was only moved by herself.
Chu Qiao’s voice was quite loud. The customers in the teahouse all turned their heads to look at them. They sized up Gu Jianshe with disdain in their eyes.
His wife had only been dead for eight months after giving birth. This man was really heartless.
Gu Jianshe felt the strange gazes from the customers and his face burned. He could not help but become angry from embarrassment, but he still suppressed his anger and explained softly, “I understand what you’re saying, but I’m really too busy with work to take care of the children. My ex-wife definitely wouldn’t want the children to suffer.”
“I understand what you mean. You want to find a mother to take care of the two children, right?” Chu Qiao asked loudly, attracting a wave of sidelong glances from the guests.
Gu Jianhe gritted his teeth. He really wanted to curse and leave, but he couldn’t bring himself to do so. He could only say, “You can’t say that. You’re both taking care of the children and also being my wife. You’ll be in the same boat as me and progress together…”
“Not only do I have to take care of two children, but I also have to take care of you? Comrade Gu Jianshe, I suggest you find a nanny. Really, it’s too hard to be your wife.”
Chu Qiao interrupted the man’s nonsense again. Gu Jianhe’s face was as black as charcoal. He suppressed his anger and didn’t flare up. Chu Qiao wasn’t afraid of him. She continued, “Let me explain my situation. My name is Chu Qiao. I’m 21 years old and unemployed. I have a short temper, and I especially hate children. When I’m angry, I can even beat people up…”
Zhou Xiaobao, who was beside him, shivered. He took a sip of hot tea. This beautiful sister was so fierce!
“I also hate cooking. It’s so greasy and annoying. Oh, right. A few days ago, I had a high fever and lost my sense of taste. The food I cooked was so salty and bland that even a pig couldn’t eat it. Also, my heart isn’t too good. I can’t take it, I can’t work, and I can’t have children. If you think it’s okay, let’s get married then.”
Chu Qiao went on and on, and Gu Jianshe’s face was already quite unsightly. He regretted coming for this blind date today. This woman looked like a ghost. She had no job, no looks, and even had a heart problem. She was also picky when it came to eating, and she had a bad temper. Was he marrying his ancestor?
He was looking for a gentle, virtuous, kind, and obedient woman, not the empress dowager.
“Comrade Chu Qiao, I still have some matters to attend to at home, so I’ll go back first.”
Gu Jianshe did not have the patience to sit down any longer. He wanted to call the waiter over to pack the snacks since he spent 32 yuan. He wanted to bring them back to his son to eat.
“Then you should go back quickly. I’ll eat these snacks slowly. I can’t waste them. I have nothing to do anyway,” Chu Qiao said with a smile.

Gu Jianshe’s hand, which was in the air, suddenly froze. He couldn’t stretch it any further, but he still asked, “Can you eat so much by yourself?”
A whole table full of snacks. Even a pig wouldn’t be able to eat all of them, right?
“If I can’t finish the snacks, I’ll bring them out for the stray dogs by the roadside. When I came here just now, I saw several stray dogs. They were so hungry that they were only skin and bones. How pitiful.” Chu Qiao said with a sorrowful tone, which made Gu Jianshe speechless.
He was someone who cared deeply about his face. He wouldn’t do something like fighting for food with a woman in public, even though his heart ached. 32 yuan!
Gritting his teeth, Gu Jianshe turned around and left. His face was ashen as he left the teahouse in a hurry. He wanted to go back and call He Jihong. In the future, she shouldn’t arrange for such a stupid woman. He, Gu Jianshe, was a deputy secretary.. It wasn’t like he couldn’t get a wife!
